"....The issue came up during a campaign event in Royal Oak, Mich. An attendee asked whether Hoekstra would support or "work to repeal" the law if elected to office.

"Will, you know, will repealing it be a priority? If you came back and said, you know, that's really the thing that's hurting my business the most. My guess is there are other things that we can do that have a higher priority in terms of what I, what I believe might need to be done. I think you know we need to create -- that thing is a nuisance. It shouldn't be the law," replied Hoekstra.

4. so if a widow is the only breadwinner in her home

she doesn't deserve fair pay/equal pay for a days work as would her widower in the same predicament? Really? Hoekstra is about taking food out of the mouths of children because it's a nuisance to pay their mother fairly and equally as they would a man?

And they say there is no war on women. This is a done deal, dude---it's already been done. There is no need to repeal it other than to really say to women "you don't need fair pay. You just need a husband so go find one and quit asking for equal pay".

It most certainly should be the law because as you demonstrated, you all couldn't open up a can of "act right/do right" in all the decades before Obama signed that into law, and it's clear that you still wouldn't open up a can a "act right/do right".
